Before I train I like to...
Squeeze into skin-tight lycra leggings without catching sight of myself in the mirror.
I train this many days a week: 4
And for this many hours: 2
My PB for this event is: Never done a marathon before.
I hope I can make it in: Less than 4 hours.

Eat, shower and watch bad TV.
The music that gets me motivated is...
Meat Loaf's Bat out of Hell.
Mr breakfast of champions consists of...
Porridge...with a smidgen of honey!
I love to run, but what I love more is...
Holidays, golf and my girlfriend (not necessarily in that order).
If I could run anywhere I'd like to run...
At Villa Park...on matchday.
My hot tip for runners is...
I think I'm the one in need of tips!
Running for the Rainforest is important to me because...
It is a great opportunity to raise money and awareness for a very important cause - and one that affects millions of people.
After I run the Marathon this year I will be...
Drinking.
If you want to sponsor me my JustGiving page is:
Is there anything you'd like to know about the other runners in your team?
How long are they prepared to wait for me at the finish line?
Is there anything you'd like to say?
I am really excited about running my first London Marathon and hope all the aches, pains and strains will be worth it come April 17. I want to say a massive thank you to all the people who have supported me over the last few months.
